		<description>Gotta say that my experiences with Mac haven&#039;t been exactly rosy either.  But my experiences are slightly more cynical than yours.  There&#039;s an article on my website which used the cliched &quot;Ten Things I Hate&quot; format.  Knock yourself out : http://scaine.net/home/node/32.

Like you say - nothing just works, but what annoys me about the Mac interface is that it will /never/ work for me - because unlike Ubuntu (or most Linux distos for that matter), I can&#039;t change what I don&#039;t like.  At least, not without paying a lot of money and going through a lot of hassle (quick example - change Front Row to Itheater... a great idea, but Itheater crashes, uses a different file structure, uses RealVideo instead of Quicktime, etc, etc).

I know those &quot;10 things I hate&quot; articles are old hat, but I had to write it.  It was driving me nuts the way Mac zealots look down that narrow little tunnel of theirs to see the computing world at large.</description>

		<description>Nice article! I especially like how you sum it all up:

&lt;q cite=&quot;Macs are computers. Macs have problems. Windows PCs have problems. Ubuntu PCs have problems.&quot;&gt;

Couldn&#039;t have said it better my self. Everyone who have problem switching from Windows to, well, anything else, should read this.</description>
